A 54-year-old Mount Druitt man has been charged after three people were stabbed at a wedding in Sydney's south-west, police say.
The incident in Liverpool was one of two multiple stabbings at weddings in Sydney's western suburbs overnight.
Six people were injured at the two weddings.
A 19-year-old man has been charged with minor offences over the second incident, in Lidcombe, in which three men were stabbed.
Riot police had to be called in when up to 80 people took to the streets in Lidcombe following the incident.
The 54-year-old was arrested after the stabbings outside a wedding at a function centre on Station Street in Liverpool on Saturday at 7.45pm (AEST), police say.
Police allege the male guest had become disruptive and was being escorted from the premises by three other guests - two men and one woman - when he produced a knife, slashing the two men, then the woman.
One man, a 28-year-old, sustained a severe laceration to his stomach, while the other, 29, sustained a deep laceration to his left forearm. The woman, 27, sustained a stab wound to her stomach.
All three remain in a stable condition in Liverpool Hospital.
The man was charged with three counts of maliciously inflicting grievous bodily harm. Bail has been refused, and he will appear at Parramatta Bail Court on Sunday.
Meanwhile, police are appealing for more information following the stabbings of three men in Lidcombe's Bridge Street.
The trio were stabbed outside a wedding function centre after a fight between three guests - aged 18, 19, and 22 - and several other men.
Violence erupted a short time later between 70 and 80 people who were concerned for the welfare of the injured men, police say.
Police from Flemington Local Area Command attended the scene with assistance from PolAir, Dog Squad, and the Public Order Riot Squad, with additional police from Parramatta and Holroyd local area commands.
Lidcombe resident David Bragg said there were about 20 police cars and a helicopter at the scene.
"There were dozens of cop cars swarming the area," he told AAP. "Lines of cops were pushing people out of the Lidcombe CBD. It was quite a full-on thing."
All three injured men were taken to Westmead Hospital, where they underwent surgery.
A 19-year-old Mount Druitt man was arrested by police at the scene and taken to Auburn police station for questioning.
He was charged with resist officer in execution of duty, and failure to disclose identification. He was bailed to appear at Burwood Local Court on June 10.
Anyone with information regarding the Lidcombe incident is urged to contact Flemington Police on 9646 8699 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
